May he rest in peace!

RX Fiesta? AFAIK is that thing a monoposto with Fiesta body…

@ JFL: I didn’t meant the view of the Xsara but its behaviour. ;)

Okay, understood today that his team took over the 2008 Ford Fiesta ST ERC of Marcus Grönholm from Andréas Eriksson. Good car, can take young Mats Lysen without any probs into B finals, possibly even...

Petter’s Xsara looks rather like a RX car now…
But the track is somewhat too tricky IMO.

Petter’s RX machinery from the mid 1990s is also there:...

Thanx!

On April 23 1978 a certain Italian by the name of Osvaldo Galatini took part in the European Rallycross Championship round at the 'Rallypista Santo Spirito' at Gropello-Cairoli near Pavia in Italy...

And now they made him "Årets Bilsportsutøver 2009" (Norway’s Best Motor Sport Performer 2009).

Mats Lysen, – for the ERC at least. With 17 years of age the youngest European champion ever in RX. He drove an ex-Rautenbach Clio S1600 and I understood some people want him to switch to Rallying…

Note: DOD is October 28, not 29 as mentioned in several news.

And nope, co-driver Per Carlsson was not related to Ingvar.

Godspeed Ingvar!
It was a great pleasure having you for two full years in the ERC.

Godspeed, Pentti!

Oops, just saw in the intro Michéle (Mouton) instead of Michèle.
That differs from the so-called "deutsche Gründlichkeit"… ;)

He’s got a taste of blood last weekend…

But instead of WRC it’s a Focus ERC. ;)

The next rally man trying his hand on RX:

The 2009 PPIHC entry was part of Ford’s PR programme to introduce the Fiesta Mk7 in the USA in 2010, thought out by Jost Capito. Therefore, I guess that Ford is also behind the video, to show the...

Not to see on vid: Grönholm’s right rear brake on fire, which set the tyre alight just before the summit.

Reminds me a lot on "Climb Dance", but GRAND anyway…

Without going to Colorado in due time for pre-testing they will never go any far.

There is NOTHING over here in Europe where you can get enough experience to race at such an altitude and of all...

Just found out that both, the RS200 of Mark Rennison and the Fiesta Mk7 of Andréas Eriksson are ready for the race now and that OlsbergsMSE has put another engine into the Mk7 of "Bosse".

I just wonder what a Sweden based team could do much better for testing…
Whatever they do for testing over here in Europe is IMO not really suitable for the very event in question.
Or is it...
